This Is Genius
Control your Genius. Or leave it to its own devices. Either way, Genius explores your library and finds songs that go great together.
Genius Playlists
Say you have one song you really love and want to hear other tracks that go great with it. A few clicks on iPod nano, and Genius uses that song to find other songs in your library and makes a Genius playlist for you. You can listen to the playlist right away, save it for later, or even refresh and give it another go. Count on Genius to create combinations you wouldn’t have thought of yourself.
Genius Mixes
Now there’s another great way to get a customized set of songs on iPod nano–have Genius do all the work. Introducing Genius Mixes. All you do is sync your iPod nano to iTunes, and Genius automatically searches your library and finds songs that sound great together to create up to 12 Genius Mixes. These mixes are like channels programmed entirely with your music. It’s a great way to rediscover songs you haven’t listened to in forever, and some you even forgot you had.
Go with the Cover Flow
View your album art in Cover Flow for a faster way to find the song you want to hear. Or just press and hold the center button to flip the album cover art over so you can see the songs. When you find the right song, press the center button to add it to your on-the-go playlist.
Shake to Shuffle Your Music
Hear songs in a totally random way. Just turn on Shake to Shuffle, then give iPod nano a shake and it shuffles to a different song in your music library. You never know what iPod nano will spin for you next.
Don’t Just Listen to the Radio, Pause it and Tag it, Too
The new FM tuner lets you see the names of songs and artists. And two amazing features–iTunes Tagging and Live Pause–make listening to the radio nothing like listening to the radio.
FM Radio–it Gives You Yet Another Way to Rock
There’s always something great on the FM dial. And now the FM tuner lets you hear your favorite morning shows on your commute and discover new music while you work out. It even shows you what and who you’re listening to.1
With Live Pause, You’ll Never Miss a Beat
Say you need to take a quick break from listening to your favorite radio station. iPod nano lets you pause it with a click. Another click and you’re listening to your station again. You can even rewind as far back as 15 minutes, then fast-forward to catch up to the live broadcast.
iTunes Tagging–the New-Fashioned Way to Discover Music
It’s quite a dilemma: You’re listening to the radio and you hear a song you like, but when you go to iTunes, you can’t remember the name or even who sings it. Enter iTunes Tagging. Now, you can use the Click Wheel on iPod nano to tag the song. iTunes creates a list of all your tagged songs so you can easily preview or purchase them when you sync iPod nano to iTunes.
VoiceOver–the Talk of the Music World
VoiceOver tells you the title and artist of the songs you listen to. And does it so seamlessly, you’ll be surprised at how brilliant it is.
Let’s Talk VoiceOver
What if you’re listening to a song and want to know the title or the artist? Just use the Click Wheel or the controls on the optional Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic and VoiceOver tells you the song name and who’s performing it without interrupting your music. So you’re never distracted from your ride or run by looking down at your screen.
The nano now includes an FM radio with iTunes Tagging and Live Pause functions. |
Capture a thought, a reminder, a class lecture, or any audio recording you want with Voice Memos. |
The new Pedometer counts every step you take. Or add Nike+ shoes and a Nike + iPod Sport Kit for the perfect workout partner. |
How it Works
You’ll notice how smoothly and easily VoiceOver works. A lot of thought went into creating an iPod nano that not only talks, but says the right things. It all begins with iTunes and its seamless integration with iPod nano. First, iTunes reads your song information, then uses the VoiceOver Kit to generate the announcements for the songs, artists, and playlists. Just sync your iPod nano to your computer and it really speaks to you.
It Speaks Multiple Languages
Your music library has songs from all over the world–a love song from France, a bolero from Spain, a pop tune from Japan. Luckily, VoiceOver speaks fluent song.
iTunes selects the language and best voice for your song titles and artist names. It looks at song data, like the title, artist, and album information, then applies intelligent algorithms to choose the right language. For example, iTunes recognizes the song “Ya Viene el Sol� by Ozomatli as a Spanish song, so your iPod nano will automatically speak that song title and artist in Spanish. If you prefer to hear that information spoken in another language, you can change the designated VoiceOver language for that song in iTunes.
Hit the Ground Running–Or Walking
With the Nike + iPod Sport Kit (sold separately) and a built-in pedometer to help keep you motivated and track your fitness progress, iPod nano makes working out less routine.
Step it up with the New Pedometer
You take your iPod nano with you everywhere. Why not use it to stay fit? iPod nano now doubles as a Pedometer. It uses the built-in accelerometer to keep track of your steps and help you meet your fitness goals. You can create a daily step goal or set it to Always On so it counts all the steps you take, all the time. Which makes iPod nano the ideal exercise partner.
Rock and Run
Your shoes and your iPod nano team up to maximize your run. See the minutes tick by. Watch the miles unfold. Hear real-time voice feedback. All to your favorite music, including your chosen Power Song–that one song that always gets you through the home stretch.
Rock the Gym
Take Nike + iPod to the gym and minute by minute, mile by mile, you’re motivated by more than music. Connect your iPod nano to a Nike + iPod compatible cardio machine. Record your pace, time, and distance as you work out. With iPod nano, every trip to the gym becomes a new challenge.
Sync
When you’re finished, connect your iPod nano to your Mac or PC. iTunes automatically sends your workout data to nikeplus.com. Every workout and every run is there, ready for you to review. Get pumped for your next run with recommended challenges, custom training programs, and maps of new routes to try. Or share motivation with runners across the world.
Note to Self: Voice Memos Are Here
The built-in mic lets you capture a thought, a reminder, a class lecture, or any audio recording you want with Voice Memos.
iTunes: Your Greatest Hits
It’s even easier to organize, browse, grow, and share your digital music and video collection with the new iTunes. And now you can save items with a wish list and enjoy iTunes extras–bonus features on select albums and movies–like lyrics, photos, interviews, and behind-the-scenes media.

I decided to purchase an iPod because I already have a 2nd generation 2GB nano, and figured I already had the accessories I needed to play it. I was not happy to find out I was wrong! I can’t play or charge it in my car, and the players I have at my office will play music but not recharge. The speaker inside the 5th generation is nice – not quality wise, but just a nice thought – I don’t know how many times I’ve accidentally left my 2nd gen on and had the battery run out (but then again the player I use it with charges as it plays so it’s never been a huge deal). Anyway the speakers aren’t the best quality, and seeing as I can plug my 2nd gen into old computer speakers so I can listen to podcasts at home, I figured I’d just do that. Nope. Can’t do that with the 5th gen. I also don’t understand why it takes video but not still shots, and the lens is in the most awkward place. Plus I couldn’t find in the instructions how to stop recording (you push the menu button). Sure, there’s cool features, the FM radio with a pause feature (which I never bothered to use), the pedometer (which I never bothered to use), a voice recorder (does a pretty good job), and a sleep timer (I’m not sure if other generations have this feature), but ultimately, it’s too high maintenance to keep it, and I’m not going to buy updated equipment for it. So I’ll either look into a refurbished older model or another mp3 player altogether – whatever will work best with the accessories I already have.

What a great ipod! The nano is tiny (I wish it were bigger personally, but that’s just me) but it works great and has a zillion features on it. I got it for my son’s birthday – he’s 8 – I know a bit young for an iPod Nano, but that was all he wanted so it was his big gift. I’m amazed at how quickly he learned to use it. He makes videos, listens to music, and has no problems navigating the little pink device.
We got a doc to go with it and have used it for both uploaded music as well as the radio. Great, great product. And the color pops! Love it.

Well at first I was a little upset when Amazon lost my order but they took care of the problem and got my new one to me as quickly as possible. The i pod is amazing, the camera is perfect, the radio is amazing. All the new features are definetley worth every penny!!!!

I have never bought an iPod or anything from Apple for that matter, and so I was starting out with a clean slate so to speak, when using this product. Not only were my expectations met, they were surpassed by far! It only took me a few minutes to get used to the controls and the menus. The sound quality is great, and so is the storage capacity- only a minimal amount of the 8gb is used up by software.
I want to address the battery issues that people have brought up- there are a few things you can do to make it better! I have yet to have a problem with my battery, and I am constantly hitting the next key (which lights the backlight up) and playing games while on my breaks at work or watching tv. At worst I have had it get to being almost red by the end of the day so I charge it before bed. If you want to improve the life of your battery, charge it fully the first time you open it, then let the battery completely drain before charging it again. Constantly charging it from half full causes the life to slowly deteriorate. If you set the backlight to only stay on for 5 seconds (which is enough to read a song title, etc) then you will improve your usage time exponentially.
Overall it is an excellent mp3 player, and the extras you get along with it are great! I love the games, they’re easier to play than mobile phone games. And the accelerometer feature is fantastic! I love being able to shake it to go to the next song, as silly as it is. I haven’t tried the video camera very much, but I do love the FM radio, it picks up more stations than my regular radio!
Definitely worth the money, I would really recommend it to anyone!
